BRASILIA (AFX) - It is feared all 155 people aboard a Brazilian airliner were killed when the Boeing 737 crashed in a remote, densely forested area in what would be the country's deadliest air disater.

President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva declared three days of mourning on Saturday after he "received news of the accident which claimed the lives of the passengers and crew who were flying from Manaus to Brasilia," his spokesman said.

Rescuers found only wreckage of GOL's Flight 1907, "bodies and more pieces of bodies," said Jose Carlos Pereira, who heads Infraero, the company that manages Brazil's airports.

"There is no possibility there are any survivors," the Folha de Sao Paulo daily quoted him as saying.

Authorities were investigating the possibility that the jetliner collided with an executive jet during the flight that originated in the Amazonian city of Manaus, and was bound for Brasilia and then on to Rio de Janeiro.

The airline said a few foreigners were among the passengers, but did not immediately disclose their nationalities.
